BJP to take up Zanskar’s issue nationwide-Zanskar- a victim of J&K’s vote bank politics –grave danger to national security ignored by Omar

A high level delegation from the border area of Zanskar met BJP President Shri Nitin Gadkari today under the leadership of Shri Tarun Vijay, M.P (R.S) to submit a memorandum about the atrocious injustices meted out to them by Srinagar’s Omar government on communal basis jeopardizing national security.

Shri Gadkari expressed his strong opposition for the discriminatory policies of J&K govt against Zanskar’s patriotic people. He said that “it is sad to know that in this time and age the region is still not developed and is cut from the rest of the nation for almost 7 months of the year. And the people are surviving in such difficult circumstances.” He asked Shri Tarun Vijay to raise the issue with Human Rights commission on behalf of the BJP. He assured the delegation from Zanskar that the BJP will take up their cause at the highest level and the party leaders in Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha Smt Sushma Swaraj and Shri Arun Jaitley will raise the issue in parliament.

He blamed the J & K government for the situation and said due to the petty politics of the vote bank gross injustice is being done to the innocent people of Zanskar.

He appreciated the efforts of Shri Tarun Vijay who became the first MP to trek the Zanskar valley on frozen river in – 30 to – 35 degree c , last fortnight, and asked him to share his personal experience and raise this issue in the parliament. He instructed Shri Jagat Prakash Nadha,Gen Sec (BJP) to pay keen attention to the problem of the Zanskar’s inhabitants..
